Method

Put both types of potato, the spring onions (reserving a third of the green parts to serve) and garlic in a large saucepan, cover with just-boiled water from a kettle and return to the boil. Turn the heat down slightly and simmer, part-covered, for 10—15 minutes, or until tender. Drain and return the potatoes to the pan and let them dry briefly in the heat of the pan.
